    Spursfans on a Spurs site are expected to be homers, but this is shocking. Still, DB.COMERS don't even compare. They are way worse so at least we have that.

    that's an abstract claim, unlike spurfans in this thread giving 71 votes to a scrub ass player over Blake Griffin.
    Your jealousy is showing.
    We got Splitter. That's all that counts!

    I live in the Dallas area, and the Dallas Basketball.com site is atrocious. Mike Fisher is nothing but a shill for the Mavericks and has nothing but envy for anything Spurs related.

    Sounds like DPG21920 has seen the "fine" work of DB.com as well.

    I refuse to vote, because there is not a comparison here. There was a reason BG was the first pick in the draft in 2010 and TS the 28th in 07 (even if he was a future at the time). If Tiago had Blake Griffin ability, he would have been a lottery pick in 2007.

    BG is the Rookie of the year in a cakewalk this year. His weaknesses are a possible injury issue long term and alligator arms (they're kinda short). He has to have that explosive athletic ability to be effective. If he loses his hops, then he becomes a more ordinary player. He's great right now, though.

    I think Tiago will be a good effective player in time. He's got some adjusting to do and he will not get the chance to play right away with the Spurs record. He'll get his chance eventually.

    Not neccesarily true. Dude has a very good post up game, with a number of different moves he can throw at opponents, not to mention a constantly developing jumper. I'm pretty confident that by his third year, the whole "he needs his athletic ability to be effective" will be completely gone. Dude clearly has skills that dont rely on athletic ability and he has grown exponentially through the season.

    Of course his athletic ability is what puts him over the top, but then again, that is what puts all great players over the top. It's the reason why Kobe > Manu, for example. If Manu had Kobe's athletic ability, he would be every bit as good, if not a better basketball player. Another example is Dwight and Gasol. Dwight is the better center, but if Pau had Dwights natrual atheltic ability, he would be a much better player than Dwight. So even though players will lose their athletic ability over years, some are just natural athletes and even if they lose some, they will still be significantly better athletes than their counterparts and will always have that advantage. Athleticism is every bit as important as skills.

    Griffin was making a fool of himself on dunks long before the league.

    Sounds like DPG21920 has seen the "fine" work of DB.com as well.
    I have actually never been to the site, but I used this logic:

    1) Many of the Mav fans who post here also go onto that site, but why would they spend the vast majority of their time here vs a site for their own team especially when they complain about GNSF? The obvious answer is that their own fan base is so terrible they can't even stand to be around people who root for the same team.

    2) Mav fan was trying to desperately hide this above fact, but then some DB.COMERS came around here with some links and I blew the freaking roof off of that cover up. To the point where Mav fan even admitted that DB.COMERS are worse than GNSF as far as takes go.

    So now they will never live it down.
